Subject: [PATCH 04/15] blk: introduce REQ_SWAP

From: Josef Bacik <jbacik@...com>

Just like REQ_META, it's important to know the IO coming down is swap
in order to guard against potential IO priority inversion issues with
cgroups.  Add REQ_SWAP and use it for all swap IO, and add it to our
bio_issue_as_root_blkg helper.
